Is Pole dancing a legit workout that you can see returns from?

OR

Is it just an excuse to let out your inner stripper ?

    Both. Why limit it to one thing. Eventually, clothes will come off.

    After seeing some pole dancers their activity on the pole puts my gym session to shame

    Okay.
    1.) Pole
    2.) Person
    3.) Person on pole
    4.) Person dancing on pole
    5.) Person dancing on pole says "o hai, too much clothes"
    6.) 1 thing leads to another
    7.) ????
    8.) Profit.

    Who cares. Life's too short to worry about silly little things like "how", or "why".

    Women participate in it first for the fun and then because they realize that they are seeing some sort of return!

    I thought about being a stripper, then I remembered im fat and cant dance. Guess I will stick to social work where I can remain poor and jaded.

    Of course it's fun!

    The returns are obvious when you preform the days or weeks workout/routine for your SO!

    I'd been lifting regularly when I decided to start pole classes. I'd never been more sore in my entire life. It works muscles you didn't know you had. It is an amazing workout that I definitely saw benefits from. Plus, you feel sexy doing it, and what girl doesn't wasn't to feel sexy?!

    Watch this and tell me if this is not a workout...I can't do half the stuff that she does and I'm in pain just watching her! I'll get there though.

    I think it's both. It's a fantastic workout and it's a chance to let loose...plus S/O's usually like it too ;)

    I've seen girls in classes do straight up planks with just one arm keeping them on the pole. It's a legit workout.
  • It is an incredible workout, i was sore for days afterwards. highly recommend it!
